Listening to Tredwell on the Radio and he sounds just like Mo Farah, absolutely exact same voice and he also looks like a Vicar. I like him a lot ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/800541/images/KYqg3pYeaerc5lD_P7BR.gif) You mean you like him religiously ........ ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/800541/images/kwfoKwtHI0jglJZ4qZf6.gif)

They should have had a bowl out in the car park or something. No more England international cricket until some small match in July, can't recall what that is though. Nice to see the first test is at Trent Bridge, my favourite ground is that.
West Indies take on Sri Lanka this afternoon in a ODI, 3:30pm start i think. Always exciting if Gayle starts teeing off, never turns up for important matches so with this being less important he may produce some fireworks.
On Tuesday 2nd July at 8:30pm on Radio 5 Live, Flintoff's Ashes Legends has an in-depth interview with Kevin Pietersen. Be well worth a listen that will.

I hope this warm up game with Essex is worth the trouble ......Essex bowled out for 20 the other day.....they can't score a run !might only end up as one innings for England

Racing along in these opening overs, it's like a 50 overs match for us 23-0 after 5 overs is more than we usually get at the start of an ODI. Essex opening bowler Tymal Mills is pretty rapid, 91 mph he's bowling at. Not too shabby that and he's only 20 years old so he may be one for the international future.

Possibly so ........an interesting partnership by Swann and Bresnan ......century for Bresnan , not the warm up the England management were imagining I would have thought

Only just noticed we were playing. So basically our batsmen fail (none went to 50) to be saved by a bowler who a good number of us don't want to be in the side because he's a bit of a cack bowler and is only in the side because he can bat occasionally and our chief spinner who is now injured. But our new star batsman has 2 wickets bowling as a replacement spinner. Fucking England! ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/800541/images/kwfoKwtHI0jglJZ4qZf6.gif)

What is the message you derive from that.

Many players of that era did wear them of course even with brylcream on their hair...one has to wonder how much of it used to get on the ball ? I have seen lots of footage with fast bowlers walking back to their mark when they push back their hair with their finger and then proceed to rub it onto the ball.....imagine the uproar today if that happened ! Bob Willis would be going apoplectic !

Bob Willis is too busy admiring Tymal Mills' physique "Just look at those thighs!" he has just said, slightly too excitedly. Steady Bob! ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/800541/images/kwfoKwtHI0jglJZ4qZf6.gif)

Well this is surreal becuase the Essex Vs England match was a First-Class Game therefore all stats, bowling and batting figures went into the record books. Therefore Bresnan's century and Craddock's 5 wicket haul would stand in the record books with their first-class averages as will everyone elses figures. However because of injuries to 3 Essex players, England back-up's Boyd Rankin and Reece Topley have come on to bowl at the request of the ECB. This is basically because they're more "testing" bowlers because the two main men for Essex in Mills & Masters were off injured and England wanted to face a better bowling attack than Owais Shah. This therefore demotes the match from it being a first-class game to being merely a practice match. Therefore all batting and bowling stats are to all intents and purposes struck from the record books. Swann will be happy, just missed out on his 1st first-class hundred for over 10 years but as it's now just a practice game, it wouldn't have counted towards his first-class stats. Absolutely bizarre that a first-class match can suddenly change into a practice match. To add to the surreal nature of it, after 2 balls from Topley, they go off for rain ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/800541/images/kwfoKwtHI0jglJZ4qZf6.gif)
